I'm 35 years old and have been playing games for literally as long as I can remember, including most every MMO that has ever been released. Having said that, I had very little interest in this game because I was upset they weren't making NWN 3. I love the NW series. I decided to download the game last night, just for the heck of it and I couldn't be more surprised. This game is a blast to play. I haven't been able to stop playing. I'm only at level 20, but so far, this is by far the best free to play MMO ever made. I'm real close to already calling it the best MMO ever made, period.

I honestly cannot imagine why anyone who likes games at all, wouldn't love this game. I strongly urge any of you that are hesitant to give this game a try because of what someone else said, to download it and play it for yourself. Bottom line, the game is FUN. Period. 

Very solo friendly. Grouping is easy and automatic when needed and group instances are fun. Even the PvP is fun and I usually hate PvP. Graphics are solid. Very little lag ever(only in cities) Voice acting is solid. 

I downloaded this game thinking I was going to hate it, and I could not have been more wrong.

So, I'm trying to submit a user review and not sure if I'm missing something, but I've filled everything out completely and when I hit the submit button I keep getting a pop-up that says "Please Enter A Score". Am I missing something somewhere? I've set a score and reset it in both places multiple times, but it keeps telling me the same thing. The game I'm trying to submit for is To The Moon, if that makes any difference.

I can't tell whether or not you're seriously claiming that if only we had a president from a different political party, then that president would never tell a single lie.

I posted this on my blog recently and thought some of you might like to read it. I'm in my 30's now and although, my generation is starting to wake up a bit, I really think we're going to need help from the generation coming up behind us. So you younger guys and girls on here, even if you can't vote yet, give this a read and at least start to think about these things.

First let's watch a few videos shall we? I promise I have a point.

Of course, if you're already familiar with all of the lies, then feel free to skip over them to the rest of the post.

(All links will open in a new window)

Obama Lies

Bush Administration Lies

Clinton Lies

Bush Sr. Lies

Reagan Lies

Ok, so are we starting to see a pattern here yet?

The point of this isn't what they lied about or what was the "worst" lie. The point is a lie is a lie is a lie.

In fact, I think you'd have a hard time finding very many presidents in our entire history that haven't blatantly lied to the American people at least once. So I guess my question is, why do we put up with it? You might even say, "What are we suppose to do? They all lie. We have to vote for someone."

Well let's look at another list. This time, our voting habits by party going back...oh let's say, 100 years. That's a nice round number right? Starting with our current Commander-in-Chief.

Barack Obama, 2009- (Democrat)

George W. Bush, 2001- 2009 (Republican)

Bill Clinton, 1993- 2001(Democrat)

George Bush Sr., 1989-1993 (Republican)

Ronald Reagan, 1981-89 (Republican)

Jimmy Carter, 1977-81 (Democrat)

Gerald Ford , 1974-77 (Republican)

Richard Nixon, 1969-74 (Republican)

Lyndon Johnson, 1963-69 (Democrat)

John Kennedy, 1961-63 (Democrat)

Dwight Eisenhower, 1953-61 (Republican)

Harry Truman, 1945-53 (Democrat)

Franklin Roosevelt, 1933-45 (Democrat)

Herbert Hoover, 1929-33 (Republican)

Calvin Coolidge, 1923-29 (Republican)

Warren Harding, 1921-23 (Republican)

Woodrow Wilson, 1913-21 (Democrat)

William Taft, 1909-13 (Republican)

Ok, I decided going back 100 years was long enough to prove a point.

The fact is, we have to go back to our 13th president, Millard Fillmore, elected in 1850 as a member of the Whig party, to find a president that wasn't a member of one of the two major parties. With a few exceptions, we follow almost the exact same pattern throughout history. We elect a Republican, then we realize they didn't do what they said they would, so we elect a Democrat next, same thing happens with them, so we elect a Republican the next time around. Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

Have you ever stopped to think that maybe, just maybe, it doesn't matter who you vote for? Republican or Democrat, they're just two sides of the same coin. Raised in the same families and social circles. Educated in the same colleges, fraternities and secret societies. Beholden to the same corporations and special interests. Have you ever thought for just one moment that all of these professional politicians don't care anything about you at all?

Does it not seem at times that it's almost scripted the way the two parties go back and forth? Do either of the parties ever really accomplish anything other than to divide the country and force people to pick a side?

We have all heard the saying, "Together we stand, Divided we fall" and the quote from Mark 3:25 in the Bible "And if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand." Both of these statements are so true and if you can't see that BOTH political parties in this country are to blame for year after year, doing everything in their power to keep this country divided right down the middle, then you my friend, need to take off the blinders and wake up.

The Illusion of Choice

The primary point I'm trying to make is we have all been conditioned and deceived into believing we have a choice in this country. In reality though, a vast majority of our "choices" mean absolutely nothing. Democrat or Republican is not a choice. There may have been a time in our history when there was a difference between the two, but they merged into a two-headed monster a long time ago.

Here's another video for you. Don't dismiss the message because it's a comedian speaking. Remember a lie is a lie and the truth is the truth, no matter who's mouth it's coming out of.

George Carlin on the Illusion of Choice

"So, what can we do? Is there anything we can do?", you might ask.

Well, I'm not going to pretend to have all the answers, I'm writing this to try and get people to think and to start talking about it, not to tell anyone what to do. But, since you asked...I do think there is one thing we can do.

What if we stopped voting for them? How about we start voting for independents? Encourage people to run as independents even at smaller levels of government. I'm not saying this would solve everything overnight, but I honestly don't see how taking offices away from the two major parties on any level of government can be a bad thing. Can you imagine a congress and senate or maybe even a presidency that wasn't controlled by either major party, but instead had a majority of independents not "owned" by anyone? Can you honestly tell me that our government wouldn't get more done?

I strongly encourage anyone who reads this to give what I've said some real thought. Get out of your comfort zone. Stop believing everything you're told. Think for yourself. Our access to information in this age is unparalleled to any time in history. Take advantage of it. Read. Research. Investigate. Stop letting politicians divide us against each other and start seeing who the real enemy is. I can promise you it's not your Democrat neighbor or your Republican boss. It's not "those white people" or "those black people", or dare I say even "those brown people wearing turbans"

The real enemies are the politicians who keep us at odds with each other over things that really don't matter at the end of the day. The real enemies are the politicians who look into cameras on a daily basis and lie to us in order to further their own agendas and enlarge the bank accounts of themselves and their friends.

The bottom line is they only have power because we give it to them. Never forget that.

Ok, I'm usually good at finding these things out myself, but for some reason I can't seem to find a 100% definite answer to this. Here's my question. I have a perfectly good motherboard from out of an older emachines computer I am wanting to use for a new build for a second computer. The only thing I can't figure out is what the best processor is that this board can handle. Here's what I know about it.

Motherboard: MSI Model: MS-7207 Ver. 2.0 , K8NGM2-H

It came out of an emachines model no. T6536

The problem I'm having is there seems like there and about a dozen different versions of that board. I can't seem to find definite specs on the K8NGM2-H version of it.

If anyone can tell me with 100% certainty what kind of processors this board can handle with as much details as possible(cause the way AMD labels their processors confuses the hell out of me too) I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

Well, no one ever believes me when I say this, but I swear it's true. I remember my mom giving me a bath in the kitchen sink at my great-grandparents house when I was about 6 months old.

I use to be in one when I was like 19-21 yrs old. Lots of fun. I write and record music evey now and then on my own now still, just for the fun of it really. You can listen to it on my myspace page if you'd like. www.myspace.com/msp
